Donna Martin, killed in Jan. 1999

Florida Department of Law Enforcement:

On Tuesday, January 12, 1999 the body of 53 year-old Donna Martin also known as “D.G.” was discovered inside her apartment residence in Boca Raton, FL where she was murdered by stabbing. Ms. Martin was last seen on the evening prior at the Porter House Bar and Grill located on Powerline Road at Palmetto Park Road in Boca Raton, Florida.

Leon County Sheriff Larry Campbell was the first deputy on the scene 31 years ago on October 22, 1966. At approximately 11 p.m., Dr. Robert W. Sims, 42; and his daughter Joy, 12; were found dead. Helen Sims, 37, was gravely wounded by two gunshots to the head. The older Sims daughters, Virginia, 17; and Judy, 15, were not at home; both were baby-sitting. Joy Sims had been gagged with a stocking and tied up. Her mother was found on the floor; both parents also were tightly bound. Dr. Sims was killed with one bullet to the head; Joy had been stabbed seven times in the chest and abdomen. Mrs. Sims, who had been shot twice in the head and once in the leg, died later at the hospital.

Officers gathering evidence found nearly 1,000 latent fingerprints. There was no sign of forced entry; however, the door lock might have been faulty. The absence of any struggle hints that the victims may have known their killer. More than one killer may have committed the murders. There was no evidence of a struggle in the home, and it would have been difficult for one person to subdue two adults and a child alone.

Anyone who might have information that would help solve this case is urged to contact the Leon County Sheriff's Office, (850)922-3300.

Florida Department of Law Enforcement: On the morning of October 4, 1974, San Francisco, California resident James Norris arrived on a commercial flight in Miami, Florida. He was traveling under the alias Richard Gunning. Norris was carrying a large amount of cash and was intending to purchase Columbian grade marijuana. That afternoon, Norris mailed a post card to his family from Inglis, Florida in Levy County. That was the last contact they had with him.

On April 16, 1976, skeletal remains were found off of U.S. Highway 19 in northern Dixie County near the Taylor County line. The remains were unidentified until DNA testing confirmed the remains were those of James Norris. In April 2011, Norris’ family flew to Florida to claim his remains and an active homicide investigation started.

The investigation shows that Norris traveled to Citrus County, Florida to purchase his marijuana from an organization operating in that county. The investigation has also revealed the members of that group.

The Norris family has established a website, www.whokilledjamesnorris.com, which talks about the search for their loved one.

On 12-30-03, the unidentified remains of a Caucasian female, approximately 25 to 35 years of age were located on Taylor Creek Road north of S.R. 520 in Orange County, FL. Authorities advise the victim had shoulder length brownish/auburn hair, pierced ears and crooked front teeth. Detectives believe the victim had been deceased for more than 30 days when found.

Jane Doe, killed in March 1999

Florida Department of Law Enforcement:

The Clay County Sheriff’s Office, Green Cove Springs, FL is investigating the apparent homicide of an unidentified female.

On 3-19-99, in Middleburg, FL, a county worker found the partial skeletal remains of an adult subject in a ravine just north of a county burrow pit at the dead end of Masters Road.

The pit is approximately one mile south of County Road 218 West. Only a skull and 39 additional bones were located. The skull has two bullet holes in it indicating that the decedent was the victim of a homicide. Originally, the remains were thought to be those of an adult white male, however, later DNA testing revealed that the remains were those of an adult white or white/black admixture female.

The Forensic Anthropology and Computer Enhancement Services (FACES) lab at Louisiana State University constructed a new facial reconstruction as a female. Bones recovered at the scene showed signs of arthritic lipping, indicating that the victim may have suffered from back problems. Also, there is a well-healed break in the left nasal region. The age of the victim is most likely between 30 and 40 years old. The victim had most likely been dead between two and ten years when discovered. The identification of the victim is unknown at this time.

Jane Doe, killed in Feb. 1991

Florida Department of Law Enforcement:

Florida Jane Doe's body and clothing was found in a dense wooded area. Her nude body was found February 15 near a frequently used illegal campground on West Summerland Key, just south of the Bahia Honda Channel Bridge.

For over a decade, police in the Florida Keys have been trying to solve a mystery -- a mystery involving a young girl. Sadly, this girl is only known as Florida Jane Doe. After all these years, detectives are still unable to find out who she is and what happened to her.

The case began on February 15, 1991. Windsurfers camping in the area near Bahia Honda State Recreation area, located near mile marker 35 on US 1 in the Florida Keys, made the gruesome discovery of a young dead girl. Her body was laying on a dirt trail in a heavily wooded area. Police say the victim was a white female girl about 15 to 20 years old, who was beaten and strangled to death with her bikini top. Her face was bruised by a beating, apparently when she was killed. Investigators believe the victim was raped, but that has not been proved. An autopsy determined Florida Jane Doe had been killed the day before on Valentine's Day.

Monroe County Sheriff's Office opened up a homicide investigation. First, they needed to identify the body. They had few clues to go on but they hoped one item would jog someone's memory. The girl was wearing a knitted, long-sleeved sweater with wide red, black and purple horizontal stripes; long knee length denim shorts; and black ankle-high Indian-moccasin booties with red stitching.

Florida Jane Doe also has two tattoos including a large heart with the word "Love" in the middle of it on her upper left arm. The other tattoo is a cross with radiating lines of line behind it in the web of her left hand. The girl weighed about 145 pounds, had brown eyes and straight, collar-length dark brown hair. An autopsy indicated she had taken good care of her teeth and around age ten she had a molar extracted.

She was seen by another eyewitness at mile marker 15 and around 6:30 that night at mile marker 17. That was the last sighting of the mystery girl.

Detectives got tips early on and learned that Florida Jane Doe had been seen by motorists hitchhiking along US 1 in the Keys. Because of her clothing especially a sweater and moccasins, she stood out. Based on the information, police determined on Valentine's Day the girl was in Key West and walked northbound on US 1 on Big Coppitt Key, about ten miles north of Key West. She was seen by another eyewitness at mile marker 15 and around 6:30 that night at mile marker 17. That was the last sighting of the mystery girl.

In 1993, police attempted to put a face to this unknown girl by creating a computerized photo of what Florida Jane Doe may look like. To this day, police have no information indicating where this girl is from or who she is, therefore, detectives are unable to solve this horrific murder. Detectives are asking again for people all over the country to take a look at the computerized photo, the clothes and the tattoos. One small tip could give them the answers they need to solve this case.
